What this test is
The MI, MN, and WI Top Allergies Test Panel is a regional IgE allergy test that screens for 24 allergens common in the upper Midwest. It measures antibody levels to help identify sensitivities to pollens, molds, pet dander, and other triggers. This panel is designed for people in those states or similar climates.
What it measures
- Tree pollens (e.g., oak, maple, birch) — reflects sensitivity to common spring tree pollens
- Grass pollens (e.g., timothy, Bermuda) — reflects sensitivity to grass pollens that peak in summer
- Weed pollens (e.g., ragweed, pigweed) — reflects sensitivity to weed pollens common in late summer and fall
- Molds (e.g., Alternaria, Cladosporium) — reflects sensitivity to indoor and outdoor mold spores
- Pet dander (cat, dog) — reflects sensitivity to proteins found in pet skin cells and saliva
- Dust mite — reflects sensitivity to microscopic insects in household dust
- Cockroach — reflects sensitivity to cockroach allergens
- Regional allergens specific to MI, MN, and WI — reflects sensitivity to locally prevalent pollens and molds
What the test involves
A healthcare professional collects a small blood sample from a vein in your arm using a standard blood draw. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.
Why it is often ordered
A clinician may order this panel when a person reports allergy-like symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, or itchy eyes that could be linked to regional allergens. It helps guide discussions about triggers and management options.
Preparation
No special preparation is usually required, but follow the collection lab's instructions. They will tell you if any medications or foods need to be avoided before the draw.
How results are reported
Results are reported as numerical levels for each allergen, often with a qualitative interpretation such as negative, low, or high. Reference ranges vary by laboratory, so your results should be interpreted in the context of the lab's own ranges and your symptoms.
